    Agreed, but I got what I paid for the 346. I have never liked running .325 on anything. Smaller saws I go with 3/8 lp, bigger 3/8 std.

    I just noticed free shipping. Thats important if you don't have on available locally. Also, if the seller is not in your state there will be additional savings on sales tax.

    Good point. Thing is they will be stuck with the trio-brake saw long after the next model come out, IMO.
